You've still got time to binge all nine seasons of How I Met Your Mother to prepare for its Hulu spinoff series How I Met Your Father , starring Hilary Duff.

In the meantime, Hulu has released a first-look photo of the new cast:

“How I Met Your Father” showrunners Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger had conceived a pivotal sequence for an episode of the show, which is set in New York City, in which their lead character walks the Brooklyn Bridge with her friends. https://t.co/md9dJ6klJd

Just as Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor) told his off-screen children the story of how he met their mother, as narrated by Bob Saget, Sophie (Duff) will tell her son how she met his father. Sex and the City icon Kim Cattrall was announced as "the older Sophie"—a la Saget in the original—last week.

Created by Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, the revival series also stars Tom Ainsley, Daniel Augustin, Christopher Lowell, Josh Peck, Francia Raisa, Ashley Reyes, Suraj Sharma and Tien Tran.

Hulu gave How I Met Your Father a straight-to-series order in April.

How I Met Your Mother aired from 2005-14.
